with love to my friends on the Garden Route where this was born & first performed

lyrics

Captain! I can spy the shore! Perhaps you’ve seen this one before
An iceberg is approaching fast, the fiddles play, we’ll never last
We’ve been skating on scurvy seas, tempest-trembling at the knees
Mariners marinading our brains while praying for the 40 days of rain
Politely paddling like damp squids at the fringes of the bay
Longing for heart-green pillow-lands to loom and end
The foggy confusion of this mutually agreed illusion

The time has come to escape the mainstream’s rip tides
Sucking us unconscious once more
Time to throw out the deadweight headline anchormen and instead call
All hands on deck of our mothership, all feet on her shivering timbers
All hips trusting the shaking vibration of our newly birthing nations
Feasting on evolutionary vegetation in an aura-orgy of flora and fauna-cation
Navigating with our bold belly barometers into a lightning-strike future made from
Steampunk shipwrecks with elegant intelligence by we permacultured pirates
Heroic electromagnetic generators of tidal-tiger juiciness
Creating the sauces of currents and coastlines as we cascade effortlessly
Over the edge of everything
Curling our mushed egos into the feline forms of freshly minted mind stew
Where we meet the ecstasy in the centre of the hourglass
And conjure up an aeon-turning epic adventure, a luscious lathered lullaby
Transforming the gestures of His story with the cyclical ripples in the nipples of Ms story

Yes, the goddess is erupting from our dreamtime journeying
Urging us to explore the sweet starry entanglement of the dark and salty whirlpool depths
She sings the majestic melodies of the ancestral spiral shells humming in our skeletons
She builds the syncopated sensuality in our embodied dancing dolphin breath
She chants the soft and floozy truth that twilight-tingles on our tastebuds
And opens the doors to our all-perceiving pores
She is the still stallion cresting our heartbeat waves
That crash with crazily intentional intensity
Awakening the rivers that recharge our ocean potency
She is the raw and weedy core, the charming churning in your eyes
The whiff of magic on the wind, the scent of angels swelling the moon
The promise of interplanetary community on a mutual quest for self-mastery
For which she holds both lock and key through recognition of telepathic synchronicity
She is of course both you and me

And so this year let’s spin the celebratory sequel of this never-ending tale
And sense it floating in this sacred moment
For that long-awaited trip to a new world is but a spirit-stroke of an oar away
If we wild-hearted ones choose to pull together
As those of us who pause to touch the silence right now will surely know
